Ack! Help! I'm trying to print some @ SAYS to a printer (also known
as trying to print a report!) and have only been able to generate
blank pages. Could someone explain the order in which the following
commands have to be issued?:

SCREEN x FONT "fonttype",pointsize
SET DEVICE TO SCREEN/PRINT
SET PRINTER TO
SET PRINT ON
SET PRINT OFF

At some point among this mess of commands, I'd like to issue a
DO "procname" that contains my @ SAYS that need to be sent to
the printer.

Also, how does the File Print option on the System
Menu figure into this puzzle? Is this strictly for printing my
source code?

Many thanks!
Sharon "Confusion Reigns!" Gordon
